The Tyranny Of Democracy

Does it drive you crazy when you hear politicians and talking heads refer to America as a “democracy”? If it does, I sympathize with you. And so do the founders.

Here’s what James Madison, our fourth President and the man they call the “Father of the Constitution,” had to say about democracies:

Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths…

Why? Well, in a Christian Republic, law rules – not the majority.
